2600 total cal, lol, seems to be the exact calories i've been having for the past few days...

exercise: hour bootcamp in AM, 5 mi jog, one mile walk. GOOD.

I have some new goals, still fitness related.

1. to keep up weightlifting - preferably 2x per week (i would do more, but bootcamp involves some weights and doing any more is counterproductive in my opinion), this week included. no pushups till thursday though...since i did them yesterday & today at bootcamp!

2. Cardio, Cardio, Cardio. I simply am not satisfied with my cardio fitness level, at all! I will do longer runs every weekend now - 5 mi at least - which is new for me. By April, I'd like to see myself able to run 6-7 miles comfortably (even if slowly). The way I plan to achieve this goal is quite easy: do more cardio...and make sure to have the hour lunch break so i can leave the building and walk, even if only a mile or even less, better than NOTHING. and healthy to move during the day!

Progress as of today: 3.5 lbs lost so far, only 3.5 lbs to go!

Nice weekend! Microwaving your protein bars sounds interesting, and if it tastes like a brownie then... SCORE.

860, good....trying to behave before a bday party i'm going to, maybe good food, prob not....i don't love the restaurant, but only been there once! noon is when the party starts, perhaps i should start getting ready!!!...so around 900.

party food: (better than pizza, i know that...we'll see what they have...i can always stick to salad, maybe i can order extra hot veggies??? for the table??) lol...too much worrying...amazing, Salmon was actually a choice, plus I had tons of broccoli...and, some darn tasty (not so healthy but sooo tasty!) mushroom risotto...around 650, at least, but at least sorta healthy! plus coffee. at least 50 more. so, 700, not too shabby...plus some appetizer, 50 or so more. 750..i don't wanna say any more calories...

snack: small protein bar. 150

dinner: 800, indulged.

2600, good.

total exercise: 3 mi in AM and either 3 or 4 mi in the pm (i think it was 4 but lost track going around and around the jogging path...)

early to bed....just relaxing and reading tonight i think...putting laundry away, not in the mood to clean the bathroom yet, i don't think...

snack: maybe some sugary bar and drinks...multiple sugar free drinks!!!!!! and a jog, around the neighborhood...maybe....but i lost my headphones, need to go to radioshack on the way home!!!! :-) it'll be worth the purchase...again...was stolen at the gym...i forgot to lock my lock!

around 2600 cal, not too shabby, not great (was hungry when i got home at 9:30pm after my walk...only had a protein bar and veggies after work at 6), but not terrible...will try to balance it out with the next few days :-)

1410 extra on top of that, but hey, it happens. i'll be back on track tomorrow.

today i did a good upper body weight routine and good cardio.

goodnight.

total cal today: 3700.

Progress as of today: 3.5 lbs lost so far, only 3.5 lbs to go!

Thank you for the bootcamp link! How's the weather where you're at? It's somewhat icy here in AR. No snow, just ice. lol My friend says that we don't have much of a winter here. She's originally from Missouri, and her brother lives in Alaska. I agree with her. :0)

So I had a bit more calories in the AM, around 1000 even before lunch when usually I am at 750-850. no biggie. and lunch was big, as usual, when the boss brings in food it is usually healthy and i usually eat too much...man i have to use the bathroom so badly right now but can't leave my desk at work!!!!

and now i'm just trying to get out of here....i don't really wanna stay any later!!!!
